Collection of four framed landscape prints including two larger works attributed to Claude Dorval: “Homeward Bound, ” depicting a shepherd and flock along a country road, and a Venetian canal scene with faint, largely illegible title and artist signature. The two smaller color landscapes include a lakeside cabin scene identified as “Abode of Contentment” or a related composition associated with American artist William M. Thompson (1893–1967), and a mountain lake landscape possibly by the same artist.
c. early–mid 20th century
The two larger Dorval prints are under glass with staining and discoloration visible beneath the glass and spotting/staining to the mats. Their frame corner joints are loose, with additional scratches, scuffs, and finish wear. The two smaller prints have sturdy frames with scratches, scuffs, and finish loss; images show age-related discoloration, spotting, and surface wear. Backing papers throughout show toning, wrinkles, punctures, tears, tape residue, and edge wear. Hanging wires remain attached.
